Do I have to hike the entire distance from Nikkaluokta to Kebnekaise?

The distance from Nikkaluokta to Kebnekaise is approximately 19 km, with an estimated hiking time of 6–8 hours. You can shorten the hike by taking a boat across the glacial lake Laddjujavri. The boat ride is 6 km long and takes 20–30 minutes. It runs several times daily during the summer season (for boat traffic information, visit www.enoks.se).

For those who cannot physically manage the hike with their own gear, companies offer helicopter transport for both luggage and passengers. However, to reduce noise, emissions, and disturbances to wildlife and nature, we encourage everyone who can to hike to and from the Mountain Station. Please note that STF does not handle helicopter ticket bookings.
